Alma

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 11 years

Alma kam aus einem anderen Tierschutzverein zu uns. Anfangs zeigt sie sich etwas zur�ckhaltend, doch schon nach kurzer Zeit fasst sie Vertrauen und zeigt, was f�r eine liebe und aufgeschlossene H�ndin in ihr steckt. Alma ist schwerh�rig und braucht deshalb etwas Geduld und Verst�ndnis. Mit Artgenossen ist sie grunds�tzlich vertr�glich, ben�tigt im Kontakt mit ihnen jedoch eine liebevolle und klare Anleitung.F�r Alma w�nschen wir uns ein ruhiges, verst�ndnisvolles Zuhause, in dem sie ihren Lebensabend genie�en und ganz in Ruhe ankommen darf. Wir freuen uns �ber Ihr Interesse an unserer Fellnase. Um Ihre Anfrage bestm�glich pr�fen zu k�nnen, geben Sie uns bitte ein paar Eckdaten zu dem potenziellen neuen Zuhause. Bitte ber�cksichtigen Sie dabei folgende Punkte: - Wie viele Personen leben im Haushalt? - Leben Kinder im Haushalt (Alter der Kinder)? - Eigentum oder Miete? - Ist ein Garten vorhanden (eingez�unt)? - Welche R�umlichkeiten sind f�r den Aufenthalt des Hundes vorgesehen? - Leben

About Alma

What life with Alma looks like

Alma is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Franziskushof e.V. in Germany.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Alma, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Alma?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Franziskushof e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Alma on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Alma if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein Franziskushof e.V. will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Alma already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Alma isn't the right fit?: Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Tierschutzverein Franziskushof e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Alma and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?: TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
